Feinstein, Allen - Sketches of Leonardo

Length:  10:30   Difficulty:  IV

A four movement work commissioned by the 2009 Euphonium Foundation Consortium aimed at college and adult students looking for a challenging musical work.  The work was inspired by 4 sketches that daVinci made himself (see the PDF below) and how they translate into instrumental music.  There are many charming moments and superb melodic lines for the euphonium.
